the lecture on what removes and reinstates the right to self defense under state law.

it was a very good lecture.

Basically when you start violating other people's rights.

its not that different from here.

If you are part of the escalation you do not have the right to self defense.

if you then stand down and remove yourself, that right is reinstated.

Basically.

Though escalation is definitely something that is more grey here.

As quite a few places allow you to shoot someone for punching you.

Sometimes even if they threaten violence upon you and you are in reasonable belief that they are imminently about to attack you.

This is why we say don't brandish weapons. If you're going to unholster your weapon, you damn well better be about to shoot someone.

not different from here, except that we have an omnipresent duty to withdraw.

brandishing weapons no longer works. The protocols have to be changed after Rittenhouse.

it used to be a part of LE protocol to demonstrate lethal.

Kyle wasn't brandishing.

that is not what I mean.

Long rifles are a bit different.

It used to be protocol to show the perp that "I am holding a sidearm"

that is no longer any point. The Rittenhouse video shows that the milennials are so egocentric they do not fear firearms.

They actually dont understand that they can get shot.

So there is no point in display or warningshot.

I'm pretty sure anyone under 35 probably feels that way the majority of the time.

Including boomers.

It's not generation-specific.

You just feel more invincible when you're younger.

We have seen many cases of this same thing happening throughout US history.

Oh, but it is.

boomers would spread like a herd of zebras at the first shot.

the protocol for such situations said that who ever remains in the cowd after the first shot is to be considered a combattant. As civilians run way fro gunfire.

This has changed now.

They get aggressive instead.

So less "civilian" and more "zombie"

Its the lack of ability to abstract in the milennial.

It doesn't bode well for future plane hijackers, if the paradigm is to collectively confront the threat. Then again, plane. Nowhere to run, I reckon.

"this is a hijacking!"
"F**k, you man! You dont tell us where to go!
"but.....there is a bomb on the plane!"
"F**k your bomb! Try blowing us up, motherf*r! I double dare you!"

I have avoided a few fights by looking at people like that lol

I recommend not doing that. You are danger close and closing your field of vision.

Actually closing distance is good depending on your tactics and style. That said, I was referring to the "crazy eyes" I have also said "Let's do it asshole" 🤣 most miscreants back off if you don't show weakness.

ok....
